• Touching my toes? I told them it was over when I was 16, and I'm not looking back. Seriously though, I've said for many years that I should improve my flexibility. Seems there's a difference between saying and doing. Who knew?

    My left hamstring packs up on longer rides if I don't stretch regularly, serves to focus the mind on including a couple of mins of stretching into the mornings routine. I genuinely feel much better when I've had a long run of taking the time to do it (this tends to go to pot when I travel, getting a taxi at 4.30am doesn't go well with a couple of minutes of stretching, for example).

  • How can you even stretch in the morning? I need to have done half an hour of warming up to stop my muscles tearing when bending to put my pants on.
